    AP 1300 Miniprinter Included in the HMP PDGpro scope of supply is an AP 1300 miniprinter (optional).

    Power supply The printer can be operated independent of a power supply unit, and is powered by a 1.8 Ah NiMH power pack housed in the printer. Thus, the printer can be carried from job to job.

    Safety

    The NiMH power pack is provided with an internal fuse unit. However, a short-circuit may occur when the NiMH power pack gets into contact with metallic items.

    The power pack must not be opened; otherwise it may leak out or a short-circuit may occur.

    Before you remove or replace the power pack, disconnect it from the external power pack charger.

    The power pack has to be charged only by means of the supplied power pack charger. The power pack charger can be connected to a 100 240 V / 50 60 Hz mains supply or, by means of an adapter cable, to a 12 24 V car battery. The adapter cable is included in the scope of supply, and is housed in the carrying case. The AP1300 printer is shipped with a connected and fully loaded power pack.

    When the printer is used for the first time after a lengthy period or has been standing idle for a lengthy period, recharge the power pack prior to use.

    In the event of malfunction the printer may only be opened by authorised personnel.

    Charging of power pack

    For charging the power pack it is only allowed to use the supplied power pack charger.

    Use the power pack charger only indoors. Disconnect the device from the mains if it is not used. Do not operate the device in case of damage to the housing or the mains plug.
